@PacNbowls You're right, it does thin out the herd a bit. Only the strong will stay in the server to get them back. It's how you can tell the decent players from the weak. The problem these days is that very few people play with VOIP and therefore cant formulate a plan to overcome. Maybe this will change as the game matures.
@turtlebeached I know but the amounts of servers that dont fill back up gets boring, that's why most servers worked on stopping it, keeps the population and gets more recommendations
- @PacNbowls I only play hardcore so couldn't comment on the softcore player problems. We don't have too many problems with basecamping cos they get a swift sharp shock.
@turtlebeachedThe "softcore" part of the community is the largest playerbase (by far) and they are perhaps more 'casual', but they pay the bills for Dice.
Spawntraps are mostly annoying and they are not fun. This will make people leave and rightfully so, who wants to waste time play a boring / annoying game?
If Dice designed the maps in a way, where you could fight back when getting spawn-trapped, it could perhaps be fun. Unfortunately many maps doesn't really take that into account and you often have to cross open areas without much cover. That makes infantry gameplay almost impossible, infantry are still 90% of the players..- @cso7777 Battlefield games used to be full of players who could drive/fly and run and gun. Somewhere down the line the players lost the ability to be good all rounders. Society is breeding a load of softness. Sad really.
